BERLIN: Volkswagen’s core autos brand will skip the Paris motor show this year, the company said on Thursday, becoming the latest and most prominent carmaker to ditch the biennial industry gathering in the French capital.
Since the VW emissions scandal erupted in 2015, Europe’s largest automotive group has scaled back brand presentations at traditional car shows, including Detroit and Frankfurt, partly as a cost-cutting measure but also mirroring a sector trend.
“The Volkswagen brand is continually reviewing its participation in international motor shows,” the carmaker said on Thursday. — Reuters
